I've seen plenty of young regulars doing all the little things. BP hit through first base/second base tonight with a hit and run on. Nice.

I've seen quite a bit of this, actually.

This team has become smarter and more about knocking in runs rather than swinging for the fence.

Baker calling the fake bunt (by Stubbs, I think) drawing in the 3rd baseman so Gomes could steal 3rd. That's good stuff. Gomes and Stubbs both have to be in on that. Unless Gomes just picked that up all on his own. I'm thinking it was planned, though.

That Stubbs play was not called by Baker. Stubbs pulled the bunt back and Gomes went on his own.

Nice heads-up by Gomes. That was quite an at-bat he had. The RBI-Double, the heads-up play taking 3rd, and then scoring a run.
